Experienced Wordpress Developer - Portland MEside sea creates thriving, digital spaces for the social sector.
We focus on building beautiful, emotionally compelling, and conversion-centric websites designed to engage and motivate people into action. Our team brings decades of experience in all facets of the digital space, and we’ve united here at side sea with the common mission of inciting positive change.
- Working with us -Although we have an office headquarters in Portland, Maine, many of our employees work remotely, from Greater New England to San Francisco to Europe. Even our local employees take advantage of our remote work culture, spending weeks or months at a time working remotely from far-flung destinations, or taking a day or two to work from home. Whatever the reason or the location, it doesn’t matter. Our team uses superior communication, work ethic, and flexibility to make the remote working dream a reality.
+ By using program management and communication tools like
Trello, Slack, Zoom, and more, we have an incredibly tight process that keeps our team on the same page, working efficiently and collaboratively. We produce amazing results together, even from thousands of miles apart.

Isn’t it lonely working remotely? Not when your colleagues are just a button-press away. Yes, we hold productive meetings with clients and with each other, but we also use Slack to chitchat just like you would with a deskmate. And, throughout the year we gather our entire team together so we can meet face-to-face and celebrate our work.
+ We’ve created a remote work culture because we want our team to stay
fresh, passionate, and invigorated, and sometimes you need a little break in the ol’ routine to accomplish that. At side
sea, we encourage you to create a lifestyle that keeps you happy and productive.We strongly identify with the following characteristics: + We fight for the people trying to create a better future because we are humanitarians that believe that to get to a better place, one must take the small incremental steps daily to build the path that takes you there.
+ Sustainability is everything. We are a bootstrapped company that has taken $0 dollars in investment money. We make our decisions as a team and ensure only those in the trenches with us impact our future.
+ Cross-pollination is the key to creating productive people. We believe that in all aspects of life the more you experience and learn the better person you'll become. Our career tracts are focused on improving your skills and experience. If a member of the team isn't learning, we have a major problem.
